Abstract— Large-scale ubiquitous computing environments require scalable and robust service discovery to enable “anytime, anywhere” computing, which is hard to be satisfied ...
Trust, the fundamental basis of ‘cooperation’ – one of the most important characteristics for the performance of pervasive ad hoc network-- is under serious threat with the ...
In recent years, we have witnessed a growing interest in high performance computing (HPC) using a cluster of workstations. However, many challenges remain to be resolved before th...
The paper presents Heterogeneous MPI (HMPI), an extension of MPI for programming high-performance computations on heterogeneous networks of computers. It allows the application pr...
